Default help simple SUM

1. Type the first formula (in A4).
2. Grab the fill handle (the small black square in the lower right corner).
3. Drag it across to column AC.
4. Release the mouse button
5. Voila, all your formulas will be populated.

Regards,
Fred

Default help simple SUM

--Enter the 1st formula in cell A4.
--Copy the cell and paste the formula aross
OR
Use the selectio handle (select A4 move your cursor to the bottom right of
cell A4; the cursor will change to cross). Click and drag the formula
across..Excel will change the reference automatically
